7 7 Pilots Order Book Section 2. Aircraft Handling Order No. AH 1 Flight Manual And Checklist The pilot in command must ensure that the aircraft is operated in strict accordance with the Flight Manual published for it. A pre-flight check shall be carried out by the pilot in command, or student pilot under the direction of a flying instructor before every flight. All checks must be carried out in accordance with the approved checklist for the aircraft to be flown. Order No. AH 2 Fuel Requirements For a local day detail not involving a landing away, sufficient fuel must be carried for the intended flight, plus at least one hour s endurance. For a local night detail not involving a landing away, sufficient fuel must be carried as required above, in addition to which sufficient further fuel must be carried to enable a diversion to Jersey to be undertaken should a landing not be feasible upon return to Guernsey. The useable fuel for any cross-country flight, day or night, involving a landing away from the Aerodrome of departure, must be sufficient for the flight to the point of intended landing, plus the flight to a diversion airfield, plus sufficient for forty five minutes holding time. In all cases, the fuel required must be calculated on the basis of maximum consumption for the type of aircraft. Order No. AH 3 Precautions When Starting Engines Before starting an aircraft engine, the pilot shall ensure that. a. The aircraft is in a position where the slipstream will not cause damage to persons, property or other aircraft. b. There is a clear path by which the aircraft may taxi from the start-up position. c. A fire extinguisher is readily available near the aircraft. d. At night, navigation lights, and if fitted the anti-collision beacon, are illuminated. The propeller will not be turned by hand during pre-flight checks unless chocks are in place in front of the wheels, and all ignition switches have been checked as being in the Off position, and the ignition key removed. Where it is necessary to start the engine by hand swinging, the propeller will only be swung by a person who has received proper instruction in hand starting procedures, and has a certified entry confirming this fact in that persons log book. In no circumstances will the propeller be hand swung without a suitably qualified person in the cockpit, and chocks are in place in front of both main wheels. Chocks will be left in position after a hand swing start until the pilot clearly signals that they may be removed. Before giving such a signal the pilot will throttle back to idling r.p.m., and check that the brakes are firmly on. The pilot will watch the chocks being removed. If on their removal the aircraft moves forward, immediate action must be taken to shut the engine down. If the removal of the chocks in normal, the pilot will then re-adjust the throttle to normal setting, before proceeding with the cockpit checks. After starting, the pilot should check that the oil pressure is rising within thirty seconds, or again, immediate action must be taken to shut the engine down.

8 8 Pilots Order Book Order No. AH 4 Engine Run Up Procedures Engine run ups shall be carried out at a holding point, with the aircraft facing into wind and the parking brake on. Should it be required for maintenance reasons to carry out a run up in a position other than at a holding point, a suitable position will be allocated by ATC. It is however the pilot s responsibility to ensure that the area behind the aircraft is clear before the run up procedures are commenced. Order No. AH 5 Safety and security of Seat Belts and Harnesses At all stages of the detail, all occupants shall be fully harnessed, and the straps in unoccupied seats securely fastened. Order No. AH 6 Turns in the Circuit No turns shall be made within five hundred feet of the ground after take-off, unless in emergency, at the request of ATC, or for specific training purposes. When turning on to final approach the turn must be complete, with the aircraft on an appropriate heading for the approach before the aircraft descends below five hundred feet AGL. The angle of bank during climbing turns shall not exceed fifteen degrees. The angle of bank during descending turns shall not exceed twenty degrees. The angle of bank during level turns within the circuit pattern shall not exceed thirty degrees. Local Noise Abatement Procedures must be adhered to. Order No. AH 7 Aerobatics and Spinning Aerobatics and spinning in GFT Ltd aircraft shall only be carried out when the pilot in command has been authorised to carry out such manoeuvres before the flight. Such authorisation will only be granted to pilots who have been previously checked by a qualified flying instructor on the manoeuvres to be performed, and the check has been recorded in the pilots log book. Normal pre-stall/spin HASELL checks must be carried out before each manoeuvre or sequence of manoeuvres. Unauthorised aerobatics will incur instant withdrawal from use of GFT Ltd aircraft by the pilot concerned. Order No. AH 8 Forced Landing Without Power (Practice) Solo practice of forced landings without power must not be continued below seven hundred feet AGL, and the throttle must be exercised to at least two thousand r.p.m., every five hundred feet of descent, and always over the thousand foot area. When authorised to practise forced landings at Guernsey airport, the circuit direction requested by ATC will be conformed with, and the pilot must remain in radio contact with ATC. If radio contact is lost, the practice must be discontinued immediately. Any unsuccessful attempt, (i.e. bad positioning which would necessitate a gliding turn below five hundred feet AGL, or an obvious undershoot) will be abandoned as soon as the fault is realised, and normal go-around action initiated.

9 9 Pilots Order Book Order No. AH 9 Forced Landing With Power (Practice) Practice of the procedure of forced landings with power may be carried out at Guernsey provided that the exercise has been previously authorised, and is carried out with the permission of ATC. Solo practice of short field landing technique will only be practised when the exercise has been previously authorised, and with the knowledge of ATC. Such practice landings will be made on the main runway between the fixed distance markers. After landing, the brakes are not to be applied excessively. Order No. AH 10 Low Flying Pilots will conform to the provisions of Rule 5 of the Rules of the Air and Air Traffic Control Regulations. Student pilots will not fly lower than one thousand feet AGL, except when within the traffic zone of an Aerodrome for the purpose of take-off or landing, or when duly authorised to descend to not below seven hundred feet AGL during forced landing practice. If at any time, for reasons of safety, a flight has to be conducted which contravenes Rule 5, a written report of the circumstances must be submitted to the duty instructor on the day of the incident. This report shall set out the time, location, altitude and height, together with a description of the circumstances of the occurrence. Order No. AH 11 Instrument Flying Practice A qualified pilot may carry out instrument flying practice, provided that a safety pilot is carried, and occupies the right hand seat. The safety pilot must hold at least a Private Pilots License, and shall. a. Keep a constant check on the location of the aircraft, and advise the pilot of his position when requested. b. Keep a check on the fuel state. c. Ensure that the aircraft is at all times flown in accordance with visual flight rules. If it becomes apparent that VFR cannot be maintained, the safety pilot will advise the pilot in command, and simulated instrument flying will immediately cease. ILS, VOR, NDB, VDF and RNAV approach procedures shall only be carried out at an airfield with a published procedure for the let down aid to be used. It is prohibited for any GFT Ltd aircraft to be flown beyond the fix outbound in any particular procedure or to leave the holding facility associated with the let down, when the cloud ceiling reported is at or below OCH plus one hundred feet. Practice instrument approaches may be carried out at Guernsey in GFT Ltd aircraft in simulated I/F conditions in VMC provided a qualified pilot holding at least a PPL with an IMC rating acts as a safety pilot. Practice instrument approaches may be carried out at Guernsey in GFT Ltd aircraft in IMC, provided that the commander of the aircraft is a qualified pilot holding at least a PPL with an instrument rating.

10 10 Pilots Order Book Order No. AH 12 Go-around Action and Missed Approach Pilots must carry out a go-around in the following circumstances. a. When instructed to do so by the ATC. b. When the runway to which the approach is being made is not clear, unless in receipt of ATC clearance to Land after. c. When, on reaching the Aerodrome boundary, clearance to land has not been received from ATC. d. To recover from an unstable approach or landing. Pilots shall carry out the promulgated missed approach procedure in the following circumstances. a. When instructed to do so by ATC. b. When on approach, the aircraft has descended to the decision height applicable and a visual circuit cannot be flown. When from an RNAV, VOR, NDB or ILS approach, the decision height has been reached, and where relevant, the applicable published or determined Missed Approach Point has been reached and a visual approach cannot be made. The pilot in command must advise ATC immediately that the missed approach procedure or goaround action has been initiated, and must comply with any instruction directed to him or her by ATC. Order No. AH 13 Refuelling Only persons authorised to do so will refuel GFT LTD aircraft., at a hard stand allocated for the purpose by ATC. If a GFT Ltd aircraft is refuelled whilst away from Guernsey, the pilot in command shall obtain, and present to the duty instructor on return, all the receipts for the fuel and oil obtained. Aircraft must not be taxied directly towards any fuel pump, tanker or installation. It is the pilot in command who is responsible for ensuring that the correct type and grade of fuel and oil is delivered to the aircraft. The use of Motor Grade Fuel (Mogas) is strictly prohibited at all times. Order No. AH 14 Parking Of Aircraft If less than 1½ hours endurance remains on completion of a flight, the aircraft shall be parked on a suitable site chosen by the pilot, or allocated by ATC, to await refuelling. Aircraft are to be parked as directed by the duty instructor on the hard parking area beside the Guernsey Aero Club, leaving enough room for the larger aircraft to be removed from the hangar. The parking brake must be left off and aircraft parked in accordance with hangar rules and the hangar left locked when the last to leave. On those occasions that an aircraft has to be left on the west apron it must be facing into the wind with the parking brake applied, control lock fitted, tied down, locked and the key returned to the duty instructor.

11 11 Pilots Order Book Section 3. General Flying Orders Order No. GF 1 Weather Minima Students and pilots will only be authorised to fly in command of GFT Ltd aircraft when the cloud base, and surface winds are forecast to remain for the whole of the intended flight, plus a further hour after the estimated time of the last landing as follows.

See RR 1 for Special VFR weather minima for those with IMC rating. Instructional (dual) Details Excessive x/wind component on return to No instructional flying shall be undertaken when the visibility is less than 1½ km, or the surface wind is greater than 25 kts. If after flying a detail from Guernsey a pilot returns, and is advised by ATC that the surface wind reveals a cross wind component in excess of the limits given in this order, the pilot shall inform ATC, who will contact GFT Ltd, and arrangements will be made for a diversion to either Jersey, or Alderney to be carried out. The aircraft will not be flown back to Guernsey until approval has been received by telephone from the duty instructor. Order No. GF 2 Minimum Altitude for Stalling and Spinning No stall or spin shall be commenced unless the proper recovery action can be carried out, and the aircraft established in straight and level flight at a greater height than 3000 ft AGL.

12 12 Pilots Order Book Order No. GF 3 Navigation Exercises and Cross Country Flying All navigation exercises and cross country flights shall be properly planned using the forecast wind velocity for the time and altitude of the proposed flight. Student pilots must have their navigation flight logs checked by the authorising instructor before flying solo navigation details. GFT Ltd aircraft will only be operated from licensed airfields. Before departure, the pilot in command will obtain local reports and forecasts for the destination and alternate airfields. All flights will be planned to avoid Danger Areas, Temporary Navigation Hazards and Royal Flights. All students navigation details shall be so planned as to provide time for the final landing to be made at least a ½ hour before sunset. Before authorising a student to undertake a solo navigation exercise, the Solo Navigation Briefing Certificate must be fully discussed, completed and duly signed by both the authorising instructor and the student. The instructor must be satisfied that the student has checked the following. a. Current met forecast b. Destination and alternate Actual reports. c. Danger areas. d. Notams. e. Procedures for entering and crossing a MATZ. f. Safety altitude. g. Maintenance of VFR, and action to be taken in the event of 1. Weather deterioration. 2. Shortage of fuel. 3.

14 14 Pilots Order Book Order No. GF 4 Pilot Equipment All pilots, whether PPL or Students must ensure that they arrive for their flight on time, with all the equipment necessary to complete the flight safely and in accordance with the regulations currently in force. Pilots are reminded that it is illegal to fly without a map or chart covering the route to be taken, and the map or chart must be currently valid for the dates when the aircraft is to be flown. Order No. GF 5 Action When Uncertain Of Position a. When flying within the local training areas and it can be established that the radio is working, the following procedure is recommended. In the first instance make R/T contact with whichever service the aircraft was in communication with before becoming lost. If this action is successful comply with any instructions given by ATC. Remember however that they are not in the cockpit with you, so if any of their instructions will place you in the position of trying to fly the aircraft outside the limitations of either your license or ability, tell the controller. If a radio frequency change is necessary in order to provide a better service, write down not only the new frequency, but also the frequency you are using at the time. Should you not be able to make contact on the new frequency, you will then have no difficulty in re-selecting the original service. b. When flying within the local training area and it is found that the radio has become unserviceable or for some other reason two-way communication cannot be established, the following procedure is recommended. Do not immediately assume that the radio has become unserviceable. First ensure that all switches and selectors are correctly positioned, the correct frequency selected, volume turned up and plugs fully inserted into their respective sockets. Try to contact other aircraft on the frequency in use; they may be able to relay a message for you. If you are satisfied that the radio in unserviceable and you are still unaware of your position, the following procedure is recommended. Select code 7600 and switch the transponder ON. Turn the aircraft onto a sensible heading, based on the reciprocal of the general heading that took you to the area in which you are flying. In the conditions that would normally prevail for a pilot to be authorised to fly a GFT Ltd aircraft, Guernsey or one of the associated islands will come into view if this heading is flown for a sensible length of time. When visual contact is made in this manner, descent should then be made to not above one thousand feet on the current QNH and a heading determined to fly direct back to Guernsey. At an estimated five nautical miles from Guernsey, a square pattern should be flown; all turns being made to the left and each side of the square being 1 minute long. The purpose of this pattern is to draw the attention of ATC to your problem and give them necessary warning that the final recommended joining procedure is about to be carried out. Having completed the square pattern a course will be set to join the circuit assuming it to be the same as it was on departure. In most cases the point of entry into the pattern will be obvious, but there are some cases where confusion could occur, and for this reason the following specific requirements should be noted.

15 15 Pilots Order Book Return from the South West Area Join direct on right base for runway 09 Join left hand downwind for runway 27 Return from the North West Area Join direct on left base for runway 09 Join right hand downwind for runway 27 Return from the West Area Join for a straight in approach for runway 09 Join right hand downwind for runway 27 In all cases, once established on final approach, look out for the light signals, which will be directed to the aircraft from the Control Power. After landing, the aircraft should clear the active runway at the first convenient turn off. Unless signalled otherwise, the aircraft will then be taxied to the apron and parked on stand 25/26 to await the arrival of the duty or authorising instructor. Order No. GF 6 Landing An Unauthorised Or Unintended Destination In the event that a GFT Ltd aircraft lands at any place other than the destination aerodrome authorised on the flight record sheet, the pilot shall ensure the immediate safety of any passengers and the aircraft. The pilot shall telephone the duty instructor at GFT Ltd as soon as possible. Under no circumstances is the pilot to attempt to take off unless the duty instructor has given specific authorisation. If a precautionary or forced landing has been made at a place other than at an active airfield, the local police and the owner of the land as well as GFT Ltd must be informed by the pilot in command. If the flight was conducted on a flight plan filed with an ATC unit, the relevant authority must be informed within 30 minutes of the planned arrival time at the destination. If the landing is made abroad, it is the responsibility of the pilot in command to establish whether or not the airfield at which the landing has been made is a point of entry (Customs Airfield). If it is not, it is also the responsibility of the pilot in command to take the necessary action to ensure that the relevant authorities are informed. Order No. GF 7 Care of Aircraft when away from Base When authorised to take a GFT Ltd aircraft away from base, it is the responsibility of the pilot in command to ensure that the aircraft is parked in a safe position, into wind, with the control locked fitted, locked and securely tied down. If available, the aircraft should be placed in a hangar, particularly if it is to be left over night, or for any long period of time. Should the pilot in command refuel the aircraft, or provide oil, the correct grades shall be used and receipts for such fuel and oil shall be retained and handed to the duty instructor on return. It is the responsibility of the pilot in command, or in the case of an instruction detail, the student, to pay any landing fees, navigational charges, parking and hangarage dues that may be incurred while the aircraft is away from base.

16 16 Pilots Order Book Order No. GF 8 Flights over the Sea A flight over water during which the aircraft will be at a greater distance from a safe landing area than the gliding range with the engine inoperative may be authorised provided that. a. All occupants wear life jackets. b. A Dinghy is carried which is large enough to contain all persons from the aircraft. e. The pilot in command has briefed all passengers on the action to be taken in the event of ditching, and the abandoning of the aircraft, including the use of life jackets and dinghy. Order No. GF 9 Consumption of Alcohol and Drugs No person shall fly, either in command, as a student or as a passenger in a GFT Ltd aircraft if they have consumed alcohol during the previous twelve hours. Any person who wishes to fly in command of a GFT Ltd aircraft who is taking any drugs or medication must inform the duty or authorising instructor and produce a letter from the doctor who prescribed the medication or drug, confirming that in his or her opinion the treatment will not impair the pilot s judgement. Do not fly while taking any medication unless you know from experience that it does not impair your judgement or facilities. Do not fly if you have been subjected to any form of local or general anaesthetic within the previous twenty four hours. Do not fly if you have carried out any scuba diving within the previous twenty four hours. Order No. GF 10 Night Flying All pilots are to familiarise themselves with the following before undertaking night flying. a. Airfield lighting system. b. Radio Comm/Nav equipment is serviceable. c. The navigation, landing and cockpit lights are serviceable. d. A torch is available should the cockpit lighting fail. e. The diversion procedure to be carried out should the runway at Guernsey become obstructed or unserviceable. Order No. GF11 Wake Vortex Avoidance Attention is drawn to the dangers associated with turbulence caused by aircraft wake vortices. Information circulars give general warnings and information for wake vortex avoidance techniques. All pilots must familiarise themselves with the contents of these.
